Falcon and Tern
A Caspian Tern showed its displeasure when a male Peregrine Falcon flew by with a bird in his talon. The Falcon went upside down to counter the attack from the Tern. From the color of it I don't think that the Falcon had one of the Tern chicks, but no birds want a raptor in their midst and so the attack. To be fair, the falcon was on its way to feed one of his two chicks. Burlington, Ontario.
